Quilts I Remember....

A few days ago, I found some photos of quilts I no longer own. These are the only images I have of these quilts. Sadly, I didn't worry about taking great photos at that time because I didn't realize that these quilts would be taken from me. In the grand scheme of things, it's not that big a deal but I'm glad to have found the photos. I thought I would show you a few every once in a while. Hope you don't mind.

This pinwheel quilt was made for a challenge from my small quilt group. The challenge was to convey a sense of motion using only 4 fabrics. I would re-create this quilt if I could find the fabrics...I just loved it! It was taken from the back of a car when I moved. I can only hope it was taken by someone who likes quilts and not by someone who just threw it away.

This is the 3 Flags quilt I made. This quilt was sold but I scanned the photos from my patriotic phase so I added photos of it.

Here's a better picture of the 3 flag quilt. It was the first large quilt I quilted on my Bernina.

This is a photo of one of the first quilts I ever made. I still like the colors. This quilt was also stolen. At the time, I thought this was a great quilting job...lol...

And here is a photo of a Hen and Chicks quilt top. It never got quilted because it was also taken. It's a bad photo and I don't know if you can see it but the hens are the big white blocks and the chick blocks are surrounding the hens.

Thanks for letting me share some of my past sewing projects. Finding these photos has made me sort of emotional about these quilts because seeing them is like hearing an old song. It makes me remember what was going on when I made them just like hearing an old song flashes me back to that time in my life.

To All My Dogs Who Have Gone On Before Me

"The moment that you left me,my heart was split in two;one side was filled withmemories; the other sidedied with you.I often lay awake at night whenthe world is fast asleep;and take a walk down memorylane with tears upon my cheek.Remembering you is easy,I do it every day;but missing you is a heartachethat never goes away.I hold you tightly within my heartand there you will remain;you see, life has gone onwithout you, but will never bethe same". Blair Robertson

An Important Personal Message

My dear friends - Have you noticed that the world seems to be getting more and more evil and corrupt? Have you ever wondered, assuming that Revelations is true, where we are time-wise and what will happen in the last days? At the bottom of this page, there is a 7 minute video that has no narration, just Bible facts about the sequence of events and where we might be. Of course, some of you won't think this is important, some of you might look at the video to see what the Bible does say and some of you may be offended and unfollow me. I personally believe that time is short. We are at 30 seconds to midnight. Things are coming this year that will affect the USA. Watch or not. I mean no offense. If I believe there is something to warn you about and I don't do it, I will be held accountable. I care about what happens to all of us. In love!
